A Lovely friend of mine gifted me with a very thoughtful gift this Eid which I absolutely loved. Some Halal Goodies! They came in the post a day before Eid but I obviously waited until Eid day to open it just to make it feel that little bit more special. You can imagine the unwrapping of the gift was full of a lot of excitement as I didn't know exactly what it was that she had bought.

A New Cushion Addition

A new addition to my cushion collection. This one is really special though because it's my DIY knitted cushion! I always feel a little proud of myself for using something I have made as an addition to my decor. Probably because it's  lovely to know that something I have made is actually usable. And I guess another reason is the fact that you can't get it anywhere else so there's never that question of whether someone else has the exact same thing!

Celebrate Us!

The last few weeks have been very hectic for my sister and I as we have been preparing for this lovely Annual Sisters Gala 2016. It was basically an event for us Muslim ladies to let our hair down and unite in sisterhood. A day filled with food, dancing, henna, stalls and really getting to know each other.

Decorate Your Home!

For those of you who don't know, this past month has been the holy month of Ramadan for us Muslims. We refrain from food and water from sunup to sundown for a whole month. At the end of the month is our celebration, Eid, and you can imagine we go all out with food, decorations and celebrations on this special day. I basically wanted to show you guys my Eid decor this year as it's my first Eid where I decorated!

7 Chic Home Libraries

It's pretty much inevitable that we need bookshelves in our houses. Even if you are not an avid book reader, books always seem to make their way into our homes. Making a particular space for the books is all you need to start your journey of a home library.

Beautiful Homes - Home Tour

I love looking inside people's homes just to see what their decor looks like. Call me nosy but who doesn't like to see it! It seems to be a real obsession, especially when it comes to celebrity homes. They have this way of going all out extravagant with their decor because, well they can. I mean, if I was minted I would most likely do the same. 

DIY Knitted Cushion

I went through a phase a few years ago where I became obsessed with knitting. I took a short online course where I learnt the basics of knitting which turned out to be really useful.
